- CL063-032 Burnt mound
Description
Monitoring of topsoil stripping (Licence Numbers 21D0048 and 21R0093) in August 2021 in connection with the Springfield Flood Relief Scheme resulted in the identification a number of spreads of burnt mound material. Burnt mound 1 was sub-oval in plan (23.5m NW-SE; 3.8m NE-SW) and it extended beyond the N limit of the works area. This was the largest feature identified and was preserved in situ. Three spreads of burnt mound material (loosely compacted, greyish-black silty clay containing frequent charcoal and heat-shattered stone) lay c. 2-5m to the S and these were fully excavated in September 2021 by F. Walsh (Licence 20E0737). They were disturbed by modern activity and are likely to represent part of burnt mound 1. A stone axe fragment was found in one of these adjacent spreads. Another burnt mound (CL063-033----) lies c. 55m to the NW. (Malek and Walsh 2022) The following item has been uploaded: CL063-032----_01.png Plan of spreads from Malek and Walsh 2022 report.

- CL063-033 Burnt mound
Description
Monitoring of topsoil stripping (Licence Numbers 21D0048 and 21R0093) in August 2021 in connection with the Springfield Flood Relief Scheme resulted in the identification a number of spreads of burnt mound material. A burnt mound, subrectangular in plan (4.5m E-W; 3.7m N-S) extended beyond the NE limit of the works area. It comprised dark, charcoal-stained silty clay and heat-shattered stone. It was preserved in situ. A spread of burnt mound material c. 7m to the W was irregular in plan (diam. c. 2.5m) and was fully excavated in September 2021 by F. Walsh (Licence 20E0737). It is likely to represent material from the main burnt mound. Another burnt mound (CL063-032----) lies c. 55m to the SE.
